Mary of Egypt - EP [2010]J

Oh wow, this one was a surprise. Bandcamp is such a wealth of awesome stuff that doesn't get the love it should.

This is a wonderfully composed pop album by Mary of Egypt. The Joanna Newsom and Sufjan Stevens comparisons are inevitable, but what really stands out on this album to me is the nineteen-century impressionist influence. Harmonies reminiscent of Debussy are played on mellow woodwinds, as subtle electronic percussion roots the overdubbed vocals, and a muted classical piano provides the bed to rest it all on.
